  1. TPAPN Success Story

    SheelaDavis replied to TexTPAPN's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Answer for Texas is NO in most overwhelming cases. Are there exceptions? Yes. If a human falls 40 feet, over 98 percent die. 2 in 100 might live. The odds of being an exception to Texas work...

    SheelaDavis replied to QuestForWa's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Back at ya. As I eluded to, I respect your take as well. Each case definitely is different and there's an interplay of complex variables. At the end of the day, each of us have to make our own...

  5. Eval from the BON

    SheelaDavis replied to QuestForWa's topic in Nurses Recovery

    No offense Beth, but I disagree, respectfully disagree and want to give another take based on years of experience with BON's. Do NOT be transparent. Transparency works in the overwhelming majority...

  6. Anyone allowed to stay on pain management on TPAPN?

    SheelaDavis replied to ApriLRNTX's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It usually does matter. What you are describing above, if done At a physical medical working location/building, is kind of like case management. Insurance and case management aren't exactly the...

  7. Switching career paths

    SheelaDavis replied to Luna2025's topic in Nurses Recovery

    The poster above who asked the question can contact the Real Estate commission and get a pre license inquiry themselves. A lawyer would be nice and seal the deal, but the person doesn't absolutely...

  8. Switching career paths

    SheelaDavis replied to Luna2025's topic in Nurses Recovery

  9. Narcotic restriction being lifted

    SheelaDavis replied to Nursrcy00901's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Here is how I reasoned at 1 year in which I accepted my narc key back. 1. Have I been strong in recovery and participated with meetings, therapy, etc? Yes. 2. Am I going to practice as a...

  10. Peth alcohol testing (whole blood and finger prick) Real-world examples here

    SheelaDavis replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hopefully your Peth Test is negative if selected. There are two reasons to get sober before starting a monitoring program. 1. You mentioned it as that's not having to worry about a positive so getting...

  11. Eval from the BON

    SheelaDavis replied to QuestForWa's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Marijuana will be a problem if they test for it. Marijuana is Federally Illegal in 50 states and Federal Law supercedes State Law. In New York, Mass, Cali, many and most employers will not test for...

  12. Non nursing jobs during monitoring

    SheelaDavis replied to smc26448's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Case Managers in Monitoring Programs are NOT the BON. Do not believe a case managers words on the phone when the question crosses into roles, working, what's considered nursing, not nursing, how many...

  13. NJ ramp/ positive for alcohol bc of vape!

    SheelaDavis replied to G. nurse's topic in Nurses Recovery

    State BON acted to quickly IF.....IF.....they suspended your license that fast. If they issued a simple temporary "stop working order," without a suspension, they can unfortunately and legally do...

  14. Eval from the BON

    SheelaDavis replied to QuestForWa's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Kratom is legal in most states and you are NOT in a monitoring program. A 14 panel hair test is unlikely to have Kratom as an add on because you are allowed to do Kratom, unless you are one of the...

  15. Does your license to practice get taken away immediately when you get letter from the board of nursing?

    SheelaDavis replied to smc26448's topic in Nurses Recovery

    1. Your license isn't going ro be revoked. If you did something so aggregious that is cause for Revoking a license, you would have got a desist order immediately and would have been told within days...

    SheelaDavis replied to sch76's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Example. Nurse under consent order in Texas (just an example) with that consent order saying 5 years of monitoring. They move to Michigan and get a 3 year contract and nurse completes 3 years....

  17. Applying to new state

    SheelaDavis replied to sch76's topic in Nurses Recovery

    No preaching here. Just giving facts and gave an analogy as to how exceptions to the rule ALWAYS exist, but the majority of us are not that exception. You can call it preaching or lack of...

  18. Applying to new state

    SheelaDavis replied to sch76's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You certainly are living and one example. ONE example. An exception to the rule. It's Not about you getting less monitoring time in the new state. That part is Easy and happens all of the time....

  19. Open formal complaint, Michigan questions

    SheelaDavis replied to Blinkyvx's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Your time absolutely does count. Michigan and other states want 3 years of monitoring up to 5 years. Most are 5 years, but it depends. Your time starts from the day you enter monitoring, not from the...

  20. How do people even make it through the monitoring program?

    SheelaDavis replied to NurseGray's topic in Nurses Recovery

    That's False. No offense, but your statement is 100% FALSE regarding the automatic 5 years.,.......keyword....IF the nurse gets an attorney and the nurse has an independent evaluation that is by a...

    If you are in the BON's line of sight, they have the ability to find out if you are working because legally, they can run your social security number and tell if you have made money, and because you...

  23. Completed California intervention program

    SheelaDavis replied to Mnltr2021's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Many schools of nursing and Advanced Practice schools of Nursing teach that the NPDB is the career ending Satan reincarnate. It's the wicked demonic entry that cripples your career. LOL. The truth...
